- Ty Cobb, Trump's former White House lawyer, tells MS NOW host Ari Melber that Trump's latest outrage, posting photos of the Obamas as apes, showcases his "failing mental health" and "cognitive decline," with Cobb stating "he's gone" and no longer fit for office.
- Cobb blames Trump's unmonitored "late night screeds" for revealing his true mental state, saying "at that hour there's nobody … there to say ‘you might want to rethink this’" and highlighting concerns over Trump's "frontal lobe issues" and "narcissistic personality disorder."
- Despite Trump's apparent mental decline, Cobb warns that his administration, including advisor Stephen Miller and Director Russell Vought, continues to "dismantle democracy," with Cobb noting that "this man with serious cognitive decline has the nuclear codes," posing a significant threat to national security.
JUSTICE MATTERS
AlterNet and CNN present vastly different stories, with AlterNet focusing on former Trump lawyer Ty Cobb's comments on the president's "serious cognitive decline" and CNN reporting on a toddler crawling through the White House fence, quoting Secret Service officials like Anthony Guglielmi. The New York Times, on the other hand, covers a separate story about Trump hosting Republican governors at the White House, using phrases like "breaks a longstanding tradition" to frame the event. By covering unrelated stories, these outlets obscure the broader context of Trump's presidency and the concerns raised by Cobb, such as the potential implications of Trump's mental health on his ability to govern.
